The best way to learn the Garmin
G1000 integrated flight deck is with a "HANDS ON" faithful,
exact, and accurate simulation encompassing flight dynamics,
real-world weather, real-world terrain, and your local
CURRENT navigation data. TRAIN HOW YOU FLY!!
Most of the customers who purchase the FTS1000, are
instrument pilots or students who demand high fidelity
Garmin G1000 avionics.

** You cannot run any of these add-on panels
without first purchasing SimAVIO.
Please download and install SimAVIO first or add it to your
shopping cart during checkout.
For a commercial license of the FTS1000, please check this
dedicated page so we may assist you with any custom and
special requirements you have.

approved simulators running the SimAVIO instrument suite.
The FTS1000 simulator is not a hack of the real Garmin G1000 simulator.
Garmin's simulator cannot connect to X-Plane. Our simulator was
re-engineered from the ground up, freeing us from licensing and other legal
ramifications with Garmin. Some features of the real
Garmin G1000 are not available on the FTS1000. For a list of
limitations, please view our
operations manual.
